    Great-Hearted Books For Boys: Storytime With HannahMary

    As promised in her first Storytime book post, Hannah brings us a long list of book titles for boys. Most of these are completely different from my other booklists. Coming soon is her list specifically for girls.

    BOOKS FOR BOYS
    • Books are listed from youngest [read-alouds] to oldest [young adult]. And adults can enjoy them all!
    • Inclusion of an author does not necessarily mean more of their books are recommended. Some were purposely excluded, and some depend on the character of the reader, so were left out.
    • Please read with discretion, with the Bible as your standard!

    Abbreviations:
    LV = search the free audiobook on LibriVox.org
    G = free e-book on Gutenberg.org
    YT = complete audiobook or samples on my YouTube channel: Storytime with HannahMary
    B = blog post on ComeBeStill.blogspot.com (Use the search feature in the top left corner of blog’s home page.)

    Hi! I’m Jacqueline!

    Thanks for being part of this journey with me.
    Welcome to my own little place on the internet! Home is where I love to be. I feel there is no greater place to incubate souls. These days you’ll find me using my experiences here to write about herbal remedies and natural health research — a big passion of mine. But being a wife and mother is not easy. It is challenging and potentially lonely. I get that. I wanted to create a place to connect with and support other moms for creating a natural, healthy, and fulfilling home life.
